If you consider yourself a passionate traveler, you've likely explored China. However, have you ever had the chance to experience a modern Chinese home? If not, you're in luck – CN is now offering a virtual tour that allows you to do just that, all while remaining in the comfort of your own space. And the journey continues – there are two additional homes from different historical periods to discover.
To commemorate the 75th anniversary of the People's Republic of China, CN introduces The Gateway of Time, an immersive and interactive AR+AI adventure spanning three unique chapters of the PRC's history. This experience invites you to step inside conceptual homes representing the early days of the PRC, the transformative years following economic reforms, and the contemporary era, each meticulously designed to embody the living conditions of its respective time.
Drawing inspiration from actual residences, these immersive environments act as symbolic glimpses into the socioeconomic backdrop of their periods. As you're guided by a voice, you'll not only observe the homes’ evolution but also uncover significant macroeconomic trends, all tied to the personal narrative of a character named Jianguo.
The cutting-edge technology showcased in the contemporary Chinese home highlights the life of a young software engineer living with her parents and grandparents. The family is flourishing – she is excelling in her career amid the fast-paced tech industry, while her father's trading business is well-established. Meanwhile, the grandparents enjoy their golden years, relishing in the accomplishments of their family.
This smart home epitomizes the nation's collective prosperity. Similar to the engineer, nearly half of the country's workforce is employed in the tertiary sector today, with the per capita disposable income for urban residents approaching 52,000 yuan last year.
As income levels rise, an increasing number of smart home appliances, such as AI-powered cleaners and intelligent refrigerators and televisions, are becoming prevalent in the lives of everyday Chinese citizens. China holds the title of the largest consumption market for these devices, accounting for over half of the global smart home industry.
Within this residence, you can also experiment with voice-activated smart controls for the television and lighting. Just tap the Smart Assistant button, state your command, and watch your home respond effortlessly.
The current era in China is also characterized by heightened social responsibility and environmental consciousness. Electric cars populate the streets, signifying the nation's dedication to sustainability, while green lifestyles illustrate a future where economic advancement and eco-friendly living coexist harmoniously.
